Here's how to get your couple photos right.
The Core Challenge
Representing Two People
You need to show:
- Both individuals clearly
- The dynamic between you
- Each person as attractive/interesting
- That both are invested
- Why someone would want to meet you both
What Matches Look For
Third parties want to know:
- What both of you look like
- That both are genuinely interested
- The vibe of your relationship
- If they'd be attracted to both
- That they won't be a prop
Essential Photo Types for Couples
1. Clear Photo of Each Individual
For each person:
- Solo photo or clearly individual
- Face visible and clear
- Representative of their appearance
- Equal quality for both partners
Why this matters:
- People need to see who you each are
- Avoids "bait and switch" feeling
- Shows both are real individuals
- Lets people evaluate attraction to each
2. Photo Together
At least one photo showing:
- Both of you together
- Your dynamic visible
- Both looking happy/engaged
- Chemistry between you
This establishes:
- You're actually a couple
- How you interact
- Your relationship energy
- What being with both of you might feel like
3. Activity/Interest Photos
Show what you're about:
- Hobbies you share
- How you spend time
- Your lifestyle
- What doing things with you looks like
Common Couple Photo Mistakes
Only Couple Photos, No Individuals
The problem:
- Hard to see each person clearly
- Can't evaluate individuals
- Feels like hiding something
- One person always partially obscured
The fix:
- Include clear individual photos
- Each person should be clearly visible
- Balance couple and solo shots
Unequal Photo Quality
The problem:
- One partner has great photos
- Other partner has poor photos
- Signals who's "running" the profile
- Creates attraction imbalance
The fix:
- Equal quality for both
- Same effort for both people
- If one has no good photos, take new ones together
One Partner Looks Reluctant
The problem:
- One person seems less enthusiastic
- Forced smile or closed body language
- Obvious who wanted this more
- Red flag for potential matches
The fix:
- Only use photos where both look happy
- If one partner isn't into it, that's a conversation to have
- Genuine enthusiasm matters
Wedding/Formal Photos Only
The problem:
- See you dressed up, not in real life
- May be old
- Doesn't show everyday you
- Too stiff and formal
The fix:
- Include casual photos
- Show everyday versions of yourselves
- Variety of contexts
Photo Order for Couples
First Photo Strategy
Lead with:
- Photo showing both of you
- Or photo of the partner who typically gets more interest
- Clear and attractive
- Hooks attention
Consider:
- If seeking women, leading with female partner can help
- If seeking men, consider leading with couple shot
- Test different approaches
Strategic Sequence
Good order:

- Individual of partner B
- Activity/lifestyle photo
- Additional couple or individual shots
Balance Throughout
Ensure:

- Neither overshadowed
- Variety maintained
- Ends on strong note
Showing Your Dynamic
Genuine Affection
Photos that show:

Sexy But Not Explicit
If appropriate:

Individuality Within Couplehood
Important to show:
- You're two complete people
- Not just "couple"
